During the last decade, zebrafish (Brachydanio rerio) have emerged as a novel and
attractive system to study embryogenesis and organogenesis in vertebrates. The main …

Owing to its transparent, easily accessible embryos, simple breeding, and short generation
time, the zebrafish has become one of the most important model organisms to study the …

The first systematic, functional screens to identify the genes involved in vertebrate
embryogenesis have been completed in the zebrafish, Danio rerio. In an extraordinary issue …

Zebrafish (Danio rerio) are a small‐bodied tropical, freshwater fish species originally from
South Asia. The ease of care, year‐round prolific breeding, and transparent, external …

Second only to the mouse and rat, the zebrafish is the most popular animal model in
biomedical research. Rapid embryonic development and transparent organogenesis give it …

Zebrafish genes and development are being studied in a growing number of laboratories.
Given that many other organisms are already being exploited by large numbers of …

Insertional mutagenesis is a method for identifying genes essential for a given biological
process by using the integration of DNA as the mutagen, thereby facilitating the cloning of …

The understanding of vertebrate development has advanced considerably in recent years,
primarily due to the study of a few model organisms. The zebrafish, the newest of these …

The zebrafish (Danio rerio) is a recent addition to the genomic scientists' repertoire of
vertebrate animal model systems. Unlike simple invertebrates such as the fly or the …

The zebrafish has proven to be an invaluable vertebrate animal model for developmental
biology. Recent technological advances have added an arsenal of tools to expand its use …
